Hi!

This is the WIP design stub for config file checks:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/DesignDocs/libini-config-file-checks

For the first version we just want to
have the typo detection mechanism. To be more
precise, we want to detect:
1. options with wrong names
2. options in wrong sections

For the more complicated checks in later
version I would like to add possibility
to define constraints for the config file.

The idea is also described in the design stub.

For the definitions of constraints, we can use INI format
as well and not the custom format that I use now.
However the custom format is quite simple and
looks better IMO and allows to parse different
attributes in different way which results in less
verbose and better formatted file. However as I said it
is not required to get the functionality.

The abilities of the rules can be further
extended by adding new attributes with special
meaning (see the design).

Lukas could you also describe the idea you told
me with the hooks in C? It sounded like a
good idea but I do not remember all the
details.
